Write a real- world statement that could be represented by the compound inequality $7.50 < p ≤ $18.50.

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

p ----> the price of a gift

Robert on Valentine's Day wants to buy a gift whose price will be greater than $7.50 but does not exceed $18.50.

so

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies but no more than 40. 5 ≤ x ≤ 40

step-by-step explanation:

20 ≤ x + 15 ≤ 55

subtract 15 from all parts

20-15 ≤ x + 15-15 ≤ 55-15

5 ≤ x ≤ 40

this means how many more cookies he has to make

walter needs to make at least 5 more cookies, but no more than 40 cookies; 5 ≤ x ≤ 40
